Later, Pravesh’s wife called up to his friends and asked them to inquire as to why her husband was not picking up the calls. Pravesh’s friends reached his quarters this morning only to find him hanging from the ceiling.

Upon being informed, Sector-3 police rushed to the spot and sent the body to Ispat General Hospital (IGH) for post-mortem.

According to sources, Pravesh was an alumnus of the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Roorkee. He was supposed to visit Meerut to see his wife who was reportedly pregnant.

While the exact reason behind his death is yet to be ascertained, it is suspected that he might have committed suicide.
